One of the best accessories you need when you’re shopping is an app that allows you to save money. There are several good apps in the app store that can save you cash when you shop.
Whipping out your phone at the cash register may seem a bit odd to you, but the money you save won’t be. In fact, you’ll love it.
Most shopping apps allow you to save money in the following ways:
- Cash back on purchases
- Discounts applied at checkout
- Rebates applied for future purchase
What Is The #1 Shopping App?
When you’re talking about shopping apps, it really depends on what you’re trying to buy. For groceries, you may put one app on your phone, but for clothes or electronics, you may download another.
Another app may be best for showing you the cheapest price. That’s why you may choose to have more than one shopping app on your phone.

Atlanta rapper Gucci Mane and wife Keyshia Ka’oir welcomed a baby boy on Wednesday, December 23, 2020. The baby’s name is Ice.
Gucci Mane tweeted the good news shortly after the birth. “My wife just gave me a 7lb 1oz baby boy named ICE DAVIS thank u.”
What Is Gucci Mane’s New Baby Named?
You may be wondering what type of name is Ice Davis? But it has a “ring” to it. It’s actually pretty cold!
If you’ve been following Gucci Mane, aka Radric Davis, you know that the “East Atlanta Santa” has been married for a few years now and it has transformed his life.
The celebrity couple wed on Tuesday Oct. 17, 2017 in a televised affair at the Four Seasons Hotel in Miami, Florida. Now baby makes three.
Ka’oir’s business saavy has helped to keep Gucci Mane out of the streets and between the sheets. She’s also a formidable businesswoman. And her clean-living has allowed Gucci Mane to stay svelte after losing 50 pounds in prison.
Jailed on a parole violation, Gucci Mane was supposed to serve 39 months, with a release date of March 2017. But he shocked fans last year when the much-thinner rapper debuted in Snapchat videos at his mansion he shares with Ka’oir.
Speaking to The Fader magazine, Ka’oir said that his social media debut was strategic, and everything happened the way she planned.
“When we got to Atlanta, we got off the plane on the runway and we had a private service that took us to our home. Then when we got home, that’s when I started posting on Snapchat. That was all my plan,” she was quoted as saying.
The couple can be seen at various Atlanta events, from Atlanta Hawks basketball games to private parties. Are they Atlanta’s first couple? What swag do you think Ice Davis will wear in his first photos?
Tune in to AtlantaFi.com to find out. In the meantime, here are adorable pictures of little Ice Davis.

Congress has approved $600 in stimulus money for most Americans and there may even be more on the way. But no matter how much stimulus money you receive, what if you could double that cash?
The way to double your money is by taking it and using it wisely. This article will explore several steps that will allow you to double your stimulus payment and more.
How To Double Your Stimulus Money
If you’re thinking about a get-rich-quick scheme to double your money, that’s not a realistic plan. The best strategies take time and effort. And using money you already have to turn it into more cash is the same thing.
Let’s look at some ways you can stretch that stimulus check.
Create An Emergency Fund
If you don’t have an emergency fund, you should consider starting one. An emergency fund doesn’t have to be a huge amount of money.
If you take $600 and put it away, you may find that it’s easy to add $20 here or there to it every time you get paid. If you add $100 a month to it, in six months you will have amassed $1,200. In one year, that can be $2,400. You get the picture.
Invest With Robinhood
Robinhood is an app that allows you to make investments in the stock market. The quick and easy process allows you to make extra money by investing in the right stocks.
Because Robinhood is commission-free, you won’t have to pay anyone but yourself when you make and profit from a transaction.
Invest In Your 401(K)
If you don’t know, a 401(K) is an employer-supplied retirement account. Typically, your job will match your contributions.
If you have some extra money hanging around (like a stimulus check) you could choose to add this money into your 401(K). This is an attractive option because your 401(k) is TAX FREE!
So all the money you put there won’t be taxed until, hopefully, it has multiplied through the years and you can live on it. Learn more about a 401(k) here.
Invest In Real Estate
Another way to make quick cash and more than double your money is to get into real estate.
You can learn about the foreclosure process and buy one and flip it or turn it into a big payout.
Download Cashback Apps
Here are several apps that allow you to make money online and even get cash back for purchases. All you have to do is download:
Once you download these apps, some of them let you scan receipts to get points, which can be converted into gift cards with cash on them.
Conclusion
Personal finance shouldn’t be this mysterious thing that you have to guess about. Being good with your money should be second nature to you because it’s your cash.
No matter what you choose to do with your money, always have a plan to make more of it.

Congress painstakingly approved a more than $900 billion stimulus package to keep Americans afloat during the coronavirus pandemic. Aside from a $600 one-time payment (will it be $2,000), there are other things in the bill you may want to know about.
We’re going to show you what’s in ihe stimulus package for you.
Although a first wave of payments in April 2020 came and went, millions of Americans are still hurting financially and need monetary aid.
Here Are The Stimulus Package Details
A co-author of the $908 billion package, Sen. Joe Manchin, D-West Virginia, told the media in early December that lawmakers were close to approving a $600 stimulus to Americans in need. But there was much debate over certain add-ons that President Trump wanted inside the bill, including spending for a border wall.
Many critics have slammed the $600 stimulus as a slap in the face, but others are grateful for any paltry sum.
Here is what the stimulus package includes:
- $600 direct payment to most Americans
- $300 additional pay for unemployment benefits
- Reopening of the Small Business Loan Program
- Moratorium extension of eviction protection
- Aid for nutrition assistance
- Aid for child care and schools
“We made major headway toward hammering out a bipartisan relief package,” said Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Kentucky, told reporters.
With many workers still preparing for layoffs, lawmakers are poised to approve more stimulus money down the road in 2021.
